SUMMARY:Seeing Like a State: Fiscal Regimes in the Ancient World
DESCRIPTION:Tribute\, rents\, taxes\, and credit\, these are the means by w
 hich the state acquires the financial means to pursue its goals as an orga
 nization\, autonomous from society. The historians Richard Bonney and Mark
  Ormrod constructed a typology of tribute state\, domain state\, tax state
 \, and fiscal state and identified historical cases from early medieval to
  modern Europe. More recently\, other historians have sought to extend and
  modify this framework with a global and deep historical perspective\, inc
 luding the ancient Mediterranean and Near East. In this workshop\, we will
  identify what tribute\, rents\, taxes\, and credit are\, what corollaries
  they have for political organization in ancient societies\, and what caus
 es them to change. We will focus on case studies from Late-Period Egypt\, 
 classical Greece\, the Hellenistic world\, and Republican Rome.
